Rules and guidelines

Military rules and guidelines

  1. To participate in military conflict, all your major military components must be outlined in a factbook or stated publicly, to ensure that everyone not only understands your military but knows. this rule exists in order to promote RP, but to prevent abuse.

    You should document items such as equipment, vehicles and weapons, detailing its characteristics, strengths/weaknesses etc.

    If a conflict is underway using info from the factbooks, any changes won’t be recognised, unless made in a reasonable manner.


  2. Fleet sizes are to be determined by your Defense Score using the Fleet power system. you can request a "fleet sheet" from a regional officer


  3. The length of space vessels has a maximum of 3 kilometres for the most powerful ships. The average ship length should be around 1 km.
    At least one established space colony is required to construct vessels longer than 1 kilometre.


  4. All major wide-scale RPs (region spanning conflict, extra-terrestrial invasions, anything that would affect anyone not involved etc), will have to be reviewed by the regional government.


  5. When participating in conflict with another nation, military or otherwise, time must be given to the other party to react or retaliate before continuing with major plans. This does not apply after one week of unknown or unannounced absence.


  6. If a conflict involves an attack on another nation, any serious damage to the receiving nation can only be made with necessary consent.


  7. No nation may be forced into a role-play. Any role-play involving a nation must be agreed upon by all parties involved.

Nation possessions, what is restricted and what is regulated.

  1. The main thing is that nothing can be made out of thin-air. Be reasonable and expect things to take time.


  2. Various items, characters and concepts are restricted in the role-play environment.

    1. High-damage singular weapons (Death stars, antimatter weapons, fleet killers etc)

    2. Fast/Instant terraforming

    3. Magic (If a sufficient explanation and justification is not present)

    4. Time travel

    5. Movement of large bodies (planets, stars). Asteroids and dwarf planets are ok.

    6. God-like beings or concepts

    7. Immortal characters

    8. Instant teleportation

    9. Certain Mega-Builds, such as Dyson Spheres, 15km Ships, and etc

    Other various overpowered items, characters and concepts are potentially restricted, though nations are trusted to determine these within reason. If any doubts arise, contact a moderator.


  3. The use of extra-terrestrial species is allowed, though due to the nature of the request please contact a moderator to go through this with you beforehand.


  4. Puppet nations alongside your existing nation require permission from the regional government.


  5. If you have space territory, at least one “earth-like” planet is allowed. Be reasonable and expect many other planets in your territory to be less hospitable.


  6. If you wish to make use of items from pop-culture (Movies, books, games etc), it would be a good idea to keep documentation of you having these items. This gives you a claim over your chosen items or groups of items in case anyone else may wish to use the same items.

  7. Human Cultures that are not being utilized in the RP are open for use, however they do not give any right or claim to their geographical home, if said home is occupied by a player who is not utilizing said culture.

  8. All Human Religions are free to use, adapt, and interpret for all players.

General RP rules and guidelines.

  1. Meta-gaming is strictly forbidden. Characters in-game cannot be influenced by out-of-character conversations and announcements, unless explicitly deemed so from all parties involved.


  2. You can only take part in regional role-play once you have an approved spot on the map. (link to page)


  3. Controlling items, characters and dictating events of another nation is not allowed unless consent has been given.
